The AIPD model is more into marketing. That is it, how would your website fit into the marketing mix of the organization and help in achieving the goals online. What you wrote about are actions, elements or attributes that a website should have.<br><br>I will comment on the points you wrote about one by one.<br><br>1. very important because visitors are very impatient<br>2. There is a tag called &quot;meta&quot; that can be used in the &quot;head&quot; section of an HTML page to give a meaningful description to the content of the page and help to reaching your website from different search engines. To know more about the &quot;meta&quot; tag please visit:<br>http://www.yourhtmlsource.com/promotion/metatags.html<br>http://searchenginewatch.com/showPage.html?page=2167931<br><br>3. This is one good idea. You can have a page for newsletters with an option to download them in pdf format or have the newsletters as a webpage within your website. You can also give customers (visitors) the option to register their email for updates of the newsletters via email.<br>4. Nice idea. Also people like to share their good experience with others. So, If you enrich the experience of your visitors, they definitely will recommend your website to others.<br>5. This is what is called &quot;Email Us&quot; or &quot;Contact Us&quot; page.<br>6. Get testimonials from your customers and ask them if they agree to have their say online, if they agree, it is great.<br>7. Very important to have a clear one that ensure privacy and confidentiality of information.<br>8. For the popular to get more popular<br>9. This is a very important skill that you should learn. Linking your name and website with the big names gives you good presence.<br>10. Not only the sales, but also a lot of other activities. If you can give customers the option to see what the status of their order is, they will love it and that is one value added to the other services you provide.<br>11. With words like &quot;Buy&quot; or &quot;Add to Cart&quot;.<br>12. Of course and with the NePG (National e-Payment Gateway) and ePG (e-Payment Gateway), different e-payment options can be implemented easily in Oman, the ePG is expected to be launched towards the end of this year.<br>13. This is similar to the Help menu in programs. You can also have a &quot;Help&quot; page and make sure to give the visitors an option to post or send you an email if they have different queries.<br>14. The content depends on what you can present to your customers in relation to the products you offer.<br>15. This page has to be there, it tells the visitors about the history of your company, what it does, what you vision and mission are, etc.<br>16. This is also important for the customers to feel safe.<br>17. If you have a good marketing plan (online and offline), people will start visiting your website and dealing with you, then make sure you provide the best differentiated service ever. You will see your reputation built up with time. It just needs time and a lot of effort. <br>18. This one is important and tough because you have to know the market and your target. Only then you can tailor your actions accordingly and deliver to your targeted customers what they want (or need).<br>19. These small things make the difference. Do also take a great care of translation (especially from English to Arabic). I have seen some websites and ads where translation was a real disaster and gives the wrong impression and that is something you do not want to happen.<br><br>This is one whole post by itself T. Hope you find these comments useful. If you need anything else, I will be more than happy to help.Sulaiman Al Rawahihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07034795416766498954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1487899330533192432.post-14402478461195562752008-03-02T07:56:00.000-08:002008-03-02T07:56:00.000-08:00Today i was searching on some key attributes for s...Today i was searching on some key attributes for starting a business online and i came up with the something simmular to idea of the AIPD...<br><br>Its very important to gain the customers satisfaction to garentee that they will come and vist your site again..<br><br>I have summerized some of the key attributes you need to consider in an online business website.. <br><br>1.
